Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of battery diagnostics, and in particular to diagnostic methods, diagnostic systems, electronic devices, storage media, and diagnostic platforms for commercial vehicle fuel cell engine assemblies. Background Technology

[0002] As the core power source for commercial vehicles, the performance stability and durability of fuel cell engines directly determine the practicality and economy of the entire vehicle. In recent years, with the rapid development of the hydrogen energy industry and the continuous expansion of commercial vehicle fleet demonstration operations, reliability issues of fuel cell engines under complex, variable, and high-load operating environments have gradually become apparent. In particular, the performance degradation and frequent failures of key components such as the fuel cell stack, air system, and hydrogen recirculation system under harsh conditions such as vibration, load variation, and cold start have become major bottlenecks restricting their large-scale commercial application.

[0003] However, existing fault diagnosis and condition monitoring technologies are mostly based on threshold judgments of local signals such as voltage, temperature, and pressure, or offline experimental analysis, making it difficult to achieve early identification and accurate location of multiple faults within the system. On the one hand, traditional methods typically perform isolated analyses of single physical parameters, failing to fully reflect the system state evolution under the coupled effects of multiple processes such as electrochemical reactions, fluid transport, and thermal management. On the other hand, existing diagnostic strategies lack dynamic adaptability to actual operating environments, with models relying on design-stage parameters and failing to consider the impact of time-varying factors such as system aging and environmental disturbances, resulting in high false alarm and false negative rates, which cannot meet the requirements of long-term high-reliability operation for commercial vehicles.

[0004] Although the finite element method (FEM) has been widely applied in stress analysis and flow field optimization during the structural design phase of fuel cells, its application in real-time health management still has significant shortcomings. Firstly, most existing FEM models focus only on a single physical field (such as mechanical stress or temperature), failing to construct a multi-field coupled co-simulation framework and neglecting the interaction mechanism between heat, fluid, and force, resulting in significant errors in fault prediction. Secondly, there is a lack of an adaptive correction mechanism that deeply integrates real-time operating data with the simulation model, leading to lagging model parameter updates and difficulty in tracking the actual dynamic changes in the system state. Furthermore, the continuous vibration, shock, and humidity fluctuations in the commercial vehicle operating environment further increase the uncertainty of the system state, placing higher demands on the real-time performance and computational efficiency of the FEM model.

[0005] Therefore, constructing a multi-physics coupled finite element diagnostic system for commercial vehicle fuel cell engine assemblies, and achieving online assessment of their health status and early warning of latent faults through high-precision modeling and real-time data assimilation simulation optimization, is of urgent and important engineering significance for improving the operational reliability of fuel cell engines, extending their service life, and reducing their total life cycle cost.

On the contrary, what this invention intends to express is that, based on the above-mentioned basic functional modules, those skilled in the art can add one or more functional modules in combination with the prior art to form an infinite number of embodiments or technical solutions. That is to say, this system is open rather than closed. It cannot be assumed that the scope of protection of the claims of this invention is limited to the above-disclosed basic functional modules just because this embodiment only discloses a few basic functional modules.

[0112] In one specific embodiment, a simulation analysis method for a fuel cell stack installed inside a fuel cell engine is disclosed. This method includes analysis methods and procedures for the stiffness, temperature field, strength, and random vibration of the stack assembly, and utilizes ABAQUS / ANSA / FEMFAT software to complete simulation modeling, solving, and evaluation. Specifically, the ABAQUS / Standard finite element strength and stiffness calculations are performed on a minicomputer UNIX workstation, while the Femfat calculations are performed on a personal computer or minicomputer workstation. Pre- and post-processing are performed on a personal computer.

[0113] The analysis method in this embodiment ensures the validity of the analysis results by imposing detailed constraints on the simulation model's unit type, size, attributes, and model features. The specific analysis process is as follows:

[0114] 1. Definition of multi-component three-dimensional geometric models: Accurately construct three-dimensional geometric models of components such as the gas turbine engine assembly, fuel cell stack housing, fuel cell stack, turbocharger, water-hydrogen separator, hydrogen ejector, and intercooler to ensure consistency between each component and the actual assembly.

[0115] 2. Geometric simplification and feature cleanup: Simplify local features with minimal impact on calculation results (such as small chamfers, process holes, and non-load-bearing threads) to eliminate redundant geometric details; retain complete geometric features for key force transmission paths (such as bolt connection surfaces and longitudinal beam welding areas) to avoid stress concentration distortion.

[0116] 3. Model Correction: Analyze and verify the dynamic characteristics of the model, dynamically adjust the longitudinal beam cut-off length (retaining a length ≥ 3 times the cross-sectional height) to ensure that the model boundary conditions match the actual excitation.

[0117] 4. Input of basic material parameters: Determine the material properties used for each of the above components, including the elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, tensile strength, yield strength, and S / N curve.

[0118] 5. Multi-field coupling parameter extension: Define temperature material properties, including coefficient of thermal expansion, wall heat transfer coefficient, and confidence interval of SN curve fitted by fatigue test data.

[0119] 6. Definition of mesh rules for different components: including definitions of different mesh sizes and cell types for fuel cell assembly housing, longitudinal beams, suspension assemblies, current collectors, and other components.

[0120] 7. Definition of nonlinear contact pairs: Establish contact pairs in key areas such as bolt preload surfaces, suspension assemblies, and housing assembly surfaces.

[0121] 8. Loading and solving of boundary conditions under multiple working conditions: Modal analysis extracts free modal calculations and constrained modal calculations respectively, and determines whether the structure needs to be improved based on the modal calculation results.

[0122] 9. Temperature field analysis: Heat dissipation on the shell surface is calculated using a radiation model, the convective heat transfer coefficient of the cooling channel is defined, and a heat generation model is constructed based on the actual fuel cell engine.

[0123] 10. Acceleration Load Analysis: Apply acceleration loads in all directions to the assembly and perform stiffness and strength calculations.

[0124] 11. Random Vibration Analysis: Apply the standard PSD spectrum to define the vibration duration corresponding to the target life, calculate the damage value and root mean square stress value, and evaluate whether the requirements are met.

[0125] In another specific embodiment, a simulation analysis method for a fuel cell engine assembly is disclosed. Through multi-level parameter constraints and multi-physics coupled modeling, high-precision structural mechanics and durability assessment is achieved. The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0126] First, it is necessary to collect the parameters and model of the fuel cell engine assembly to prepare for simulation analysis. The data to be collected includes:

[0127] 1. Three-dimensional models of fuel cell stack, air supply system, hydrogen supply system, thermal management system, water management system and related accessories.

[0128] 2. Assembly relationship documents, including bolt preload, contact relationship, welding relationship, etc.

[0129] 3. Key feature dimension table, such as the spatial dimensions of each subsystem, the cross-sectional dimensions of waterways and airways, etc.

[0130] 4. Determine the material properties of each component, including its elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, tensile strength, yield strength, S / N curve, thermophysical properties, and contact characteristics. Each component needs to have the correct density set, and the total mass calculated from the simplified model of the fuel cell assembly should be equal to the actual mass.

[0131] 5. Operating conditions and load data: vibration acceleration spectrum, operating temperature field data, system pipeline pressure, etc.

[0132] Secondly, after the above data is complete, preprocessing is performed, followed by mesh generation. The mesh model requirements are as follows:

[0133] 1. Geometric defect repair: Use pre-processing software to repair gaps and interference in the model, manually repair complex curved surfaces, eliminate non-load-bearing features such as small chamfers and process holes, and smooth burrs on the edge of the membrane electrode.

[0134] 2. Removal of non-critical components: Remove brackets (e.g., gas turbine engine assembly suspension bracket 1, gas turbine engine assembly accessories and their brackets 3), decorative covers, and other components that contribute less than 1% to the overall stiffness; perform mass point equivalence on the remaining components to ensure conservation of inertial parameters.

[0135] 3. Key features are preserved and enhanced: Solid bolts are modeled, and the mesh nodes in the contact area correspond to each other to ensure smooth and accurate calculations.

[0136] 4. Mesh processing in the contact area: Node mapping is used on the bolt connection surface to ensure consistent mesh density between the master and slave surfaces and avoid initial penetration.

[0137] 5. After mesh generation, the output is a .inp format model file. For example... Figure 3 As shown.

[0138] Finally, temperature and pressure loads are applied to the gas turbine engine assembly, and temperature field, stiffness, and strength calculations are performed. After loading, the results are imported into ABAQUS software for solution calculation, and the calculation results are obtained as an .odb file. Stress data is read, and the results are evaluated. The evaluation criteria are determined based on the actual space and displacement requirements.

[0139] The .odb file is input into the femfat software to calculate the safety factor, and the strength of the fuel cell stack assembly is evaluated based on the safety factor. The safety factor evaluation criteria are formed through accumulated experience.

[0140] If there is no accumulated experience data or evaluation criteria, the strength can be evaluated based on the stress calculation results. The evaluation criteria is that the maximum stress value is less than the tensile strength limit of the material.

[0141] The technical features particularly emphasized in the above embodiments include:

[0142] 1. An integrated modeling technology based on the three-dimensional model of the fuel cell engine assembly, assembly relationship files, material multi-physics properties, and measured operating condition data ensures the consistency between the simulation model and the actual physical state.

[0143] 2. A standardized process for repairing geometric defects and simplifying non-critical features is achieved through pre-processing software.

[0144] 3. Mesh generation method and contact interface compatibility control strategy for fuel cell engine assembly.

[0145] 4. Modal analysis method for dynamically correcting model boundary conditions by combining test field vibration data.

[0146] 5. Integrated temperature field and pressure load multi-field coupling loading method.

[0147] 6. Random vibration load application method and damage value calculation and evaluation method.

[0148] 7. Strength assessment and safety factor calculation and evaluation standards based on dynamic loads.
